[quote=Anonymous]Does she want her life extended? If not, you can just let her lack of appetite progress naturally. She has lived a very long life. My mom with dementia lost the ability to swallow before she lost her appetite. Believe me, I would much rather she had progressed to lack of appetite first....the puréed food was just hideous and she hated it, but even that was risky for her, as was just drinking water. I'd consider this a blessing. Let her eat when she is hungry, whatever she likes. No need to push anything else![/quote]
